About Electric Motors

When replacing a motor, use the information on your motor’s nameplate to guide your selection.

Base-Mount AC Motors

TEFC Enclosure

ODP Enclosure

TENV Enclosure

Replace old base-mount motors to keep your equipment moving. Motors are rated for continuous duty and mount at any angle. You can wire for clockwise or counterclockwise rotation; instructions are included.

To use a motor with a variable frequency drive (AC motor speed control), choose a three-phase motor that’s inverter rated.

Motors withaweldedbase have a base that's welded to the enclosure.

Motors withoverloadprotection turn off in overload conditions to prevent motor damage.Automatic overload protection starts the motor automatically after it cools.

Face-Mount AC Motors

ODP Enclosure

TEFC Enclosure

TENV Enclosure

Also known as C-face motors, these bolt directly to your equipment at any angle.They're rated for continuous duty and have a keyed shaft that comes with key stock. You can wire for clockwise or counterclockwise rotation; instructions are included.

Base/Face-Mount AC Motors

TEFC Enclosure

TENV Enclosure

Select a motor that fits many applications—these mount from the base or face and at any angle.They're rated for continuous duty and have a keyed shaft that includes key stock. Wire for clockwise or counterclockwise rotation; instructions are included.

Choose a three-phase motor, which is inverter rated, if you want to use a variable frequency drive (AC motor speed control).

Washdown motors have an epoxy-coated enclosure, neoprene rubber gaskets, and removable drain plugs. They meet IP55 for protection from water projected from a nozzle.

Sanitary Washdown Face-Mount AC Motors

TEFC Enclosure

TENV Enclosure

Bolt these motors directly to conveyors,pumps, and other equipment to keep things moving in sanitary environments. They’re also known as C-face motors. They’re rated IP69 to hold up to the high-pressure, high-temperature washdowns that are often required in food-safe areas. These face-mount motors are designed without feet, so it’s easy to clean the entire motor body. For extra protection from washdowns, the interior of the motor is completely lined with epoxy resin. A two-barrier shaft seal prevents liquids from entering the motor through the shaft. They also have a face-mount drain to allow liquids to escape from the face cavity, so they don’t linger there and stagnate.

Made from 304 stainless steel, these motors won’t corrode from frequent washdowns with harsh cleaners and sanitizers. They have rounded edges and smooth surfaces so that there are no crevices where bacteria can grow. A laser-marked nameplate gives you permanent identification information without any bolts,engravings, or adhesive labels that can trap contaminants.

These motors are rated for continuous duty, so you can run equipment that never goes offline.They're also inverter rated, which means you can use them with variable frequency drives, or VFDs, to run them at different speeds for different tasks. No need to reroute power during installation—the conduit box rotates 360°(90° at a time) so you can connect conduit from any side.

TEFC(totally enclosed fan cooled) motors have an external fan that blows air over the outside housing for cooling.TENV(totally enclosed non-vented) motors do not require a fan or other ventilation. This type of body has fewer areas where water and contaminants can enter than TEFC motors.

Sanitary Washdown Base/Face-Mount AC Motors

TENV Enclosure

TEFC Enclosure

For the most mounting versatility in sanitary and washdown environments, these motors mount in two ways. Bolt them down through their feet, or face-mount them directly to your conveyor,pump, or other machine. They have an IP69 rating, so they'll hold up to the high-pressure, high-temperature cleaning cycles common in food-processing and other sanitary environments. A two-barrier seal keep liquids from entering through the motor shaft, and an epoxy resin coating protects the interior. Holes on the face of the motor drain any liquid that finds its way into the mounting cavity.

Made of 304 stainless steel, these motors stand up to frequent washdowns with harsh cleaners without rusting. Critical for sanitary environments, these motors reduce the chances of foodborne illnesses by making thorough cleaning possible. Smooth contours, continuous welds, and a laser-marked nameplate with no bolts or labels give bacteria no place to hide.

Designed for industrial food processing lines that never go offline, these motors can run continuously.They're also inverter rated, which means you can use them with variable frequency drives, or VFDs, to run them at different speeds for different tasks. The motor's conduit connection rotates 360°(90° at a time) so you won't have to reroute your power supply.

TEFC(totally enclosed fan cooled) motors have an external fan that blows air over the outside housing for cooling.TENV(totally enclosed nonventilated) motors do not require a fan or other ventilation. This type of body has fewer areas where water and contaminants can enter than TEFC motors.

AC Gearmotors

Gearmotor

Optional Shaft

A motor and speed reducer in one, these gearmotors have hypoid gears for energy-efficient operation. You can use them to turn a shaft on your equipment or add a keyed shaft (soldseparately). Wire for clockwise or counterclockwise rotation; instructions are included. Gearmotors meet IP54 for protection from dust and splashed water.They're inverter rated so you can use them with a motor speed control(notincluded) to adjust the motor speed.
